Ordinary surface ECG electrodes accurately reflect cardiac electric activity at hypothermiaBenedict Kjaergaard
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Center for Cardiovascular Research, Aalborg Hospital, Aarhus University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
Eur J Emerg Med 15:256-60. 2008..It has been claimed that needle electrodes can be a useful means to detect weak ECG signals in cases of accidental hypothermia...
Extracorporeal cardiopulmonary support may be an efficient rescue of patients after massive pulmonary embolism. An experimental porcine studyBenedict Kjærgaard
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Cardiovascular Research Centre, Aalborg Hospital, Aarhus University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
Thromb Res 129:e147-51. 2012..Cardiopulmonary support and therapeutic hypothermia is an option for cardiac arrest and could be used to treat massive PE. However, hypothermia may influence the effect of the ongoing intrinsic fibrinolysis...
Extra corporeal life support makes advanced radiologic examinations and cardiac interventions possible in patients with cardiac arrestBenedict Kjærgaard

Resuscitation 82:623-6. 2011..After commencing ECLS the search for a provoking origin may include advanced radiologic examinations before deciding further treatment...
Low plasma potassium in deep hypothermic cardiac arrest indicates that cardiac arrest is secondary to hypothermia: a porcine studyBenedict Kjaergaard
Center for Cardiovascular Research, Aalborg Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
Eur J Emerg Med 17:131-5. 2010..The aim of this animal study was to assess biochemical changes after anoxic circulatory arrest at hypothermia and at normothermia followed by external cooling...
A porcine model of massive, totally occlusive, pulmonary embolismBenedict Kjaergaard
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Center for Cardiovascular Research, Aalborg Hospital, Aarhus University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
Thromb Res 124:226-9. 2009..A reliable, animal model of massive, totally occlusive, pulmonary embolism (PE) is lacking...
Aero-medical evacuation with interventional lung assist in lung failure patientsBenedict Kjaergaard
Medical Corps, Royal Danish Air Force, Denmark
Resuscitation 72:280-5. 2007..The present animal study was performed to test the feasibility of treating lung failure with iLA during intercontinental air evacuation in a military setting...
Warming of patients with accidental hypothermia using warm water pleural lavageBenedict Kjaergaard
Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery, Center for Cardiovascular Research, Aalborg Hospital, University of Arhus, Skodshoej 2, DK 9530 Stoevring, Denmark
Resuscitation 68:203-7. 2006..All were warmed using pleural lavage with warm saline. All were discharged to their own homes neurologically intact...
A mobile system for the treatment of accidental hypothermia with extracorporeal circulationB Kjaergaard
Department of Thoracic Surgery, Aalborg Hospital, Denmark
Perfusion 16:453-9. 2001..It is possible to bring a lightweight ECC system to the unstable patient. Treatment is possible in any hospital, ambulance or helicopter...
Alveolar accumulation/concentration of nitrogen during apneic oxygenation with arteriovenous carbon dioxide removalNiels D Nielsen
Anaesthesia Research Unit, Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine, North Denmark Region, Aarhus University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
ASAIO J 56:30-4. 2010..07 (0.06-0.07). No atelectasis was visible on computed tomography after either period, and we, therefore, conclude that the alveolar hypoxia was caused by the alveolar N2 accumulation/concentration and subsequently by the O2 depletion...
Apneic oxygenation combined with extracorporeal arteriovenous carbon dioxide removal provides sufficient gas exchange in experimental lung injuryNiels D Nielsen
Anaesthesia Research Unit, Anaesthesia and Intensive Care Medicine, North Denmark Region, Aarhus University Hospital, Aalborg, Denmark
ASAIO J 54:401-5. 2008..Thus, the method provided adequate gas exchange in this experimental model, suggesting that it might have potential as an alternative treatment modality in acute lung injury...
